Installation of Gblocks

Additional libraries

The ia32-libs package is necessary to run Gblocks on a x86_64 operating system. This should be covered if you start a server from scratch with these instructions. If you are installing on another Ubuntu server, do this:

% sudo apt-get -y install lib32-libs

Procedure

After looking, Gblocks source code is not available but a Linux executable is available from the web site. Here is the procedure to install GBlocks in Impilo:

% sudo chown -R root:root /opt/bio/sources/Gblocks_0.91b
% sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/bio/sources/Gblocks_0.91b
% sudo ln -s /opt/bio/sources/Gblocks_0.91b/Gblocks /usr/local/bin/gblocks
